The La Ballona Elementary Safe Routes to School Project will install a number of traffic safety improvements in the neighborhood surrounding La Ballona Elementary School to make it safer and more comfortable to walk and bike to school. Proposed improvements include:

New ADA ramps to make it easier to cross the street in a wheelchair or with a stroller

New high-visibility crosswalks

New controlled intersections with median refuge islands on Washington Blvd.

New street trees and pedestrian-scale lighting

A new protected bike lane on Elenda Street between Culver Blvd. and Washington Blvd.

This project is funded through a California Active Transportation Program Cycle 2 grant and is scheduled to go to City Council in May 2019. Design and engineering work are currently ongoing.

You can provide feedback on the proposals for this project, for the Public Works Department's and City Council's consideration, at the following feedback survey before March 25, 2019 11:59PM (feedback flyer displayed below).
